Dear Slash,
I've been a fan of yours for years. You were a rock God with GNR, I loved Velvet Revolver, and I even liked some of your solo stuff, but this shit has to stop. I understand why you are taking the Santana route with newest album, but this is a travesty. Why in the all that is unholy would you rehash old GNR songs like this. I know you can play Paradise City while drunk and high and possibly jerking off, but this is horrible. Its not even that I don't like your choice of guest appearances. I love Cypress Hill. I love (looking at) Fergie. This just doesn't work. It doesn't even have the same soul as the original song. It is a sad, hallow attempt to recapture former glory. This is the worst remake I have heard since Fergie's remake of Barracuda.
Speaking as a fan, please stop this insanity. Find yourself a new band where the singer isn't going to burn out on drugs and do what you do best, create great music. Nobody wants to hear you rehash your old songs like your former friend Axl has been doing for years.

Sadly, I really liked the intro and the Guitar sounds pretty phat now compared to the original, and was impressed that Fergie could get that much grit in her voice. He should have used them to create a new piece and it would have been great. Remaking a GNR song without Axl is never going to work.
